Let F1=Force exerted by the brother (+F1)
F1= Force exerted by the sister (-F2)

Fnet=(+F1) + (-F2)
Fnet= (+F1) + (-F2)
Fnet=F1 - F2
Fnet= (+3N)+(-5N)
Fnet= -2N

-F

towards the sister (-F) (greater force applied)

Traveling waves propagate with a fixed speed usually denoted as v (but sometimes c). The waves are called __________ if their wa
Snezhnost [94]

Answer:

Periodic.

Explanation:

Electromagnetic waves is a propagating medium used in all communications device to transmit data (messages) from the device of the sender to the device of the receiver.

Generally, the most commonly used electromagnetic wave technology in telecommunications is radio waves.

Radio waves can be defined as an electromagnetic wave that has its frequency ranging from 30 GHz to 300 GHz and its wavelength between 1mm and 3000m. Therefore, radio waves are a series of repetitive valleys and peaks that are typically characterized of having the longest wavelength in the electromagnetic spectrum.

Basically, as a result of radio waves having long wavelengths, they are mainly used in long-distance communications such as the carriage and transmission of data.

Generally, a fixed speed is used for the propagation of traveling waves and this speed is usually denoted with the variable "v" or sometimes "c."

Furthermore, if the waveform of a traveling wave is repeated every time at specific intervals T, it is referred to as periodic wave.

Mathematically, the period of a traveling wave is given by the formula;

Period = \frac {1}{T}

Where;

T is the time measured in seconds.

A crate resting on a rough horizontal floor is to be moved horizontally. The coefficient of static friction is 0.36. To start th
luda_lava [24]

Answer:

Explanation:

The direction of force will be in upward direction making an angle of θ with the vertical .

Reaction force R = mg - F cosθ

Friction force = μR

= .36 (mg - F cosθ )

Horizontal component of applied force

= F sinθ

For equilibrium

F sinθ = .36 (mg - F cosθ)

F sinθ + .36 F cosθ =.36 mg

F (sinθ + .36 cosθ) = .36 mg

F R( cosδsinθ +sinδ cosθ) = .36 mg ( Rcosδ = 1 . Rsinδ= .36 )

F R sin( θ+δ )  = . 36 mg

F = .36 mg / Rsin( θ+δ )

For minimum F , sin( θ+δ ) should be maximum

sin( θ+ δ ) = sin 90

θ+ δ  = 90

Rsinδ / Rcosδ  = .36

δ = 20⁰

θ = 70⁰ Ans

A bicycle has a momentum of 23.4
Snowcat [4.5K]
  • Momentum=23.4kgm/s
  • Velocity=2m/s

\\ \rm\longmapsto Momentum=Mass\times velocity

\\ \rm\longmapsto Mass=\dfrac{Momentum}{Velocity}

\\ \rm\longmapsto Mass=\dfrac{23.4}{2}

\\ \rm\longmapsto Mass=11.7kg

Name two kinds of longitudinal waves and explain how you know they are longitudinal.
dezoksy [38]
A transverse wave and a longitudinal wave.

Transverse:wave particles move at medium speed in perpendicular to the direction that the waves move

Longitudinal:wave particles move at medium speed in parallel to the direction that the wave moves

Hope this helps ^-^
